Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

There is a code for pg_hba.conf in the documentation:
local all postgres md5 sameuser

but as for postgresql version 8.4 this does not work, the correct version is:
local all postgres md5

The full link is: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/postgresql.html

Alexandr, thanks for your report. Scott, this patch also looks good, so I've applied it to Lucid as well, rev. 406. Thanks!
